While there are also other adaptive techniques, where the decoder＇s LRBs adapt to the external parameter of the decoder like SNR （Signal Noise Ratio） level, a novel adaptive algorithm for BTC based on the statistics of an internal variable of the decoder itself is proposed in this paper. Different from the previous reported results, it collects the statistics of the multiplicity of the candidate sequences, i.e., the number of the same candidate sequences with the same minimum squared Euclidean distance resulted from the decoding of test sequences. It is shown by Monte Carlo simulations that the proposed adaptive algorithm has only about 0.02dB coding loss but the average complexity of the proposed algorithm is about 42% less compared with Pyndiah＇s iterative decoding algorithm using the fixed LRBs parameter.展开更多

So the best neighborhood match method using genetic algorithm is used to conceal the error blocks. Experimental results show that the searching space can be greatly reduced by using genetic algorithm compared with exhaustive searching method, and good image quality is achieved. The peak signal noise ratios(PSNRs) of the restored images are increased greatly.展开更多

With the known channel fading statistics fed from the receiver, eigenbeamforming is utilized to improve the performance of STBC at the transmitter. The new system achieves the array and diversity gain simultaneously. Because reduced dimension processing is adopted, the proposed system has a relative simple structure compared with the traditional beamforming system. The validity of the scheme is verified in several situations by simulation experiments.展开更多

Especially, the motion search is required for each of the 4 modes for inter prediction. In order to reduce the computational complexity, we analyze the statistics of results of motion estimation, such as the continuity of best modes of blocks in successive frames and the chance to give up a sub-partition mode （smaller than 16 × 16） after integer-pixel motion estimation, from which we suggest to make mode prediction based on the motion information of the previous frame and skip sub-pixel motion estimation in subpartition mode selectively. According to the experimental result, the proposed algorithm can save 75 % of the computational time with a slight degradation （0.03 dB） on PSNR compared with the pseudocode of fast search motion estimation in JM12.2.展开更多

They also gave the construction for searching such an n × n nonsingular matrix Q. In this paper, we find that their method implies an efficient construction of Q.

Moreover, complexity analysis is made to show the efficiency of the specific construction.展开更多
